R/T Suspension

I'm gonna be throwing my Eibachs's on pretty soon, got my hands on R/T Shocks/Struts. Would those be an upgrade from my stock SXT ones WITH my Eibach's?? I TRIED To search everywhere, but couldn't find anything.... Anybody know anything on this??

You'd have to measure dia. for difference in thickness. Bigger is better, lol.

Im pretty sure the R/T has a better suspension than the SXT even if its just the plain R/T and not R&T.

That's what I was thinking, they HAVE to be tougher than V6 struts & shocks in my opinion....

I'm sure it is but look into the weight differences between the 3.5L v6 and 5.7L v8 motor alone. if the 5.7L weighs a bunch more it might raise your car... im not saying it will, i have no idea i haven't compared the 2 but it might.

i know when you buy Hotchkis suspension systems for my truck you have to tell them what motor you have because there is a different set of springs for each motor and the v8 springs in the v6 don't drop the truck much and make it bouncy.

I'm just gonna use the struts and shocks, I'll be installing Eibach lowering springs that are for a V6 at that time as well...

So I was just thinking, since it'll all be apart, if I should just use the struts and shocks from the R/T. The shocks or struts won't raise it, usually it's the springs that raise or lower a car.
